A publication of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship.
Since 1989, the Mormon Studies Review published review essays to help serious readers make informed choices and judgments about books and other publications on topics related to the Latter-day Saint religious tradition. These publications, originally produced by the Foundation for Ancient Research and Mormon Studies (FARMS), included substantial freestanding essays that made further contributions to the field of Mormon studies. The journal was originally called Review of Books on the Book of Mormon beginning in 1989, then FARMS Review of Books in 1996, followed by The FARMS Review in 2003. In 2011 the journal was renamed Mormon Studies Review. These volumes are located here in ScholarsArchive under the title Review of Books on the Book of Mormon. In 2014, under the auspices of BYU's Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship, Mormon Studies Review relaunched with a new format and editorial direction. Volumes of this latest iteration are located in ScholarsArchive under the title Mormon Studies Review.
